Rehab 2

April 17th, 2008 kNuke Posted in ACL Surgery Adventure | No Comments »

Went to rehab again on Wednesday…  First thing I did was ride the stationary bike for 5 minutes.  I can’t believe how stiff my knee was!  I could barely make a revolution at the start, but after I adjusted the seat up a little bit I was okay. 

Looks like I’ll get new exercises every time I go to rehab.  This time I got some leg presses, calf stretches, and lower back exercises.  Nothing much to write home about, just lots of reps and some itty bitty weights.  After that was done, I did some of the older exercises and had the usual ice and stim.  In and out in about an hour.  My knee felt like crap afterwards…  It took about 20 minutes before it felt better.  I guess rehab will do that to my knee?

Two down, ten more to go!  Oh, a funny side story for you folks.  Later that night when I was at home, I almost tripped over a CAT5 cable,which caused my knee to jerk back.  I was in F-Bomb mode for about 3 minutes after that!  If you’re my neighbor, my bad!
